Advanced Search's claim to fame is its ability to batch move files from one folder to another. It does this fairly well, and it may save you a bit of time over using Windows tools. But the app's search capabilities are very limited and only allow you to specify the directory and file type. As a result, you'll find little reason to use Advanced Search if you're just doing a search.

If you frequently move files around on your PC, this utility improves on the process a bit. If you want truly advanced search features, you'll be sorely disappointed. Advanced Search is suitable for users of all skill levels, but isn't likely to knock anyone out.

Publisher's Description

Advanced Search is a fairly simple application that allows you to recursively search for files using a basic filter. You can also batch move files from one folder to another folder based on a file filter. It's really not much better than Windows Explorer except for the batch move feature.
